About Us

Welcome!

Dear Customer and Lego Enthusiast,

Welcome to Around The Corner Bricks! We are a small business based in Odenton, MD looking to serve all your Lego needs. We offer a variety of parts and colors and hope sincerely that you will find what you are are looking for at a reasonable price.

About The Owners

The company is owned and operated out of our home in Odenton, MD. Lauren, is a stay at home mom, college grad, wife and Lego enthusiast who handles the purchasing and inventoring of all that you see on our BrickOwl page.

We try to add new parts and pieces weekly to our BrickOwl page, but due to our busy schedules, inventory updates might be less frequently. This does not impact of promise when it comes to processing and shipping orders. We strive to have your orders out the door and at the post office within 3 to 5 business days.

How We Work

Most of our inventory comes from people getting rid of their Lego sets and bulk pieces. We purchase typically 20 to 40 pounds at a time. Lauren then spends 12 to 20 hours separating and organizing all those parts and pieces. She spends a couple weeks building sets, often selling incomplete sets at a serious discount from the retail or current value, on BrickOwl, eBay or Craiglist. 

We then take the leftover pieces, package them in group of 5 or 10, 20 or whatever, and list them on BrickOwl. There is not much profit listing on BrickOwl, but connecting people with the right bricks is part of our mission statement. We love seeing Lego being played with and hate when they sit collecting dust.

Thus, most of the pieces we list are used. We do featured some new and like new pieces, but as stated most of our pieces come from smoke-free homes with gently used bricks. We wash the really dusty or smokey pieces, and will tell you in the listing if they are not from a smoke-free home. 
 

We hope you have an awesome day and hope all your LEGO dreams come true!
